The magic of Marley hair for voluminous twists
Havana twists are generally created with Marley hair or similar extensions, for a more airy, textured, and natural effect. The twist is large, often loosely wrapped, which gives a very bohemian look. It's the ideal alternative to Senegalese twists for a more organic style.
A stylish protective hairstyle for coily hair
In addition to being aesthetic, this hairstyle protects the hair strands, limits manipulation, and allows for better moisture retention. It is perfectly suited for 4A to 4C hair. Havana twists are also a good transition option to space out manipulations while staying stylish daily.
Tips for long-lasting and comfortable Havana twists
It is advisable to prepare the hair with a nourishing treatment or a light styling cream. Avoid overly heavy extensions to prevent tension on the roots. For maintenance, moisturize your scalp, sleep with a protective bonnet, and avoid excessive humidity. Havana twists can last between 4 and 6 weeks.
